This patch is OK.

I've just retested the patch on mainline on both alphaev67-dec-osf5.1 and
i686-pc-linux-gnu with full bootstraps and regression tests, both with
no new failures and confirmed that on the alpha it resolves the problem
unrolling constant iteration loops on the alpha.

Falk, you may want to open a new PR for the "enhancement" request for
non-constant iteration loops that's also mentioned in PR opt/10080.  I
think the PR itself can be closed as Zdenek's patch fixes the regression.
